You can say that again child of the 7th age! I had friends from Japan who came to visit me recently and I found out from them that they're most dearly loved books of all time were lotr. It was sort of weird to me for them to say that though because Tolkien wrote most of the stories while England and America were on ends with Japan. Tolkien definently wouldn't have expected that.

(I mean no offense to Japanese people with this post. I, myself, am of asian descent)
